BBC’s Fiona Armstrong opens River Dee’s Salmon season

The 2011 Salmon fishing season has been officially opened today, Tuesday 1st Febuary by BBC broadcaster and keen angler Fiona Armstrong.

The opening took place at Potarch Bridge and Fiona has hopefully set the trend for the year as she caught a 4lb Salmon.

We have some dates available on the Glen Tanar beats in March so please contact us on (013398) 86451 for more information.

Videos of Glen Tanar and our Salmon Fishing

For those of you who want to catch a glimpse of life here on Deeside we now have two videos on the site for you to enjoy. The first is our new Glen Tanar promotional video which shows scenes of the local mountains and landscape, wildlife and birds, local characters and hard-working estate staff, visitors to our holiday cottages and some of the weddings and events what we host here.

The Glen Tanar video is also available on Youtube so if  anyone would like to embed it then you can do so from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cryK5cPwy2o

The second video is about Salmon and Trout Fishing and is a section from Sky TV’s fishing programme Tight Lines  featuring expert angler and TV presenter Fiona Armstrong, who visited Glen Tanar to fish on our stretch of the River Dee and on our trout loch. Fiona is a great fan of the Dee and really appreciated the quiet seclusion and wide open spaces of our beats.

Enjoy both videos and please let us know if you have any problems viewing them. They’re both quite large in order to maintain as much quality as possible so there may be a little buffering when downloading them, but we hope we’ve got the best balance between viewing and loading.

Salmon Fishing on River Dee

Today on Monday 1st of March 2010 we are very happy to say that the Salmon Fishing on Glen Tanar’s beats has officially started for the season.Salmon fishing on The River Dee

Here at Glen Tanar we have 4 beats on the famous River Dee, these beats are Headinch & Cambus O’ May, Deecastle & Dinnet, Waterside & Ferrar & Craigendinnie.

Despite all of the heavy snow and ice that we have been experiencing this Winter and are still working around today, we have managed to get the Fishing started.  We hope that the fishermen that we have out on the River this week will still manage to catch some fish despite being surrounded by snow.
